Main shopping rules in China: if the thing is cheap, beware of forgery (you will have to pay more for quality), and all purchases are better done in stores.

Medicines can be purchased only in a certified medical center (and not those strange institutions, where tourist guides often bring) after consulting a licensed doctor. Otherwise, you risk adding to the existing ailments with miracle ointments and tinctures from incomprehensible components.

The fur coat can only be bought after a thorough examination: the quality of Chinese fur is basically low, so that the product is worn for a long time, you have to work hard at choosing. But silk things are beyond praise, boldly carry clothes, bags, scarves, bed linens and blankets. Knitwear, shoes, down jackets and vests are also not bad, they deserve attention. Women really like Chinese skin care products for face and body. Tea, porcelain, pearls are traditional purchases in China.

And finally, electronics. Buy is worth external hard drives for the computer, flash drives, tablets, readers, mobile phones. Well, if you want to buy a Chinese iPhone, you will have to decide on your own.
